Race to The Bottom...

...of the bottle.

Showed up to the races but didn't actually race so in true fashion found something else to compete in. Obviously my friends had no faith in my ability to hold alcohol with their estimated .14 and my actual .08

 

Whats funny is the people yelling at me in the hot tub telling me I'm drunk and need to go the fuck to sleep are the ones blowing .18-.21

I'm usually the designated drink maker, so I can scientifically know when to start cutting people off.

 

LOL. Can't tell you how many times I've been at a party or out or something, and one of my buddies will say "don't try and go beer-for-beer with Scott" to someone I normally don't hang out with.. I drink FAST. Water, soda, beer, doesn't matter. Always been that way. It doesn't end up well for most people.

 

You sound exactly like the dude to pound 'em with.

Cheers!

 

beer makes me sick

 

Not sure, I'll get a stomach ache with one beer and usually throw up.

 

In my experience, having one of these gets real bad real fast. Even the cheapo ones that probably aren't close to accurate can be dangerous.

 

"Let's get some fuckin' French Toast!"

That's what I'm thinking. I mean even the ones the police use if they aren't properly calibrated before each use they can throw incorrect readings that lawyers can use as grounds in court to throw out as evidence. I somehow don't believe a little plastic doohickey jammed in your pocket and plugged into your iPhone is going to give anywhere close to an accurate reading each use.

 

A lot of independent tests put them within a few thousands of the calibrated machines.

 

I need to clarify, when I say "bad" or "dangerous" I'm really saying, "you're going to end up a drunk sloppy mess"

 

There's one nondrinker that shows up to hang out every weekend and he's the designated calibrator. It's usually off +.004 This time it was off +.007. But if everyone starts off at .007 then it doesn't matter. All I know is I downed 17oz of vodka in 3-4 hours and came out at .08

I ordered a new one so I have my own too play with at local parties and use as a give me your keys tool for those I know put themselves at risk for drunk driving. This company, BACtrack offers calibration services if you send it in once a year.

 

The same has been said about me with tequila.

 

ive had a bac track one for years, mom gave it to me one christmas. its fun, BUT, the instructions say you have to wait 20 minutes from your last drink before using it or it can break.

that is the longest 20 minutes when you are trying to win....

 

We found just rinsing with water works well.

 

Presumes the error is linear.
